Improving the accuracy of collaborative filtering recommendations using clustering and association rules mining on implicit data

作者:

Highlights:

• Tackle data sparsity using clustering and association rules mining on massive data.

• Utilizing users' implicit interaction records with items for improving CF.

• Using item repetition in a transaction as the input for association rules.

• Experiments show that the proposed technique substantially outperforms basic CF.

• Comparing the accuracy of proposed technique with other extended version of CF.
